I can see it now, there’s a definite kink on the fletching side. The lines off the sun are definitely uneven and one more above than below the arrow. I’m not too experienced with tattoo trouble, but I wager it might be able to be remedied a bit with some thicker lines or by covering them with an altered design.

I don’t know, I can’t see the piece.

Well, I don’t see anything wrong with either of your tattoos, but I am fairly new to this. That being said, Allie, your experience sounds completely normal, I lost skin throughout the first week of mine healing, and my shop actually encouraged getting it wet and cleaning it in the shower, just carefully, and not letting it stay wet for very long. If anything goes wrong with it, you’ll notice. Especially with a small tattoo like that, mine is about the size of a softball, and fairly detailed, imperfections get lost.

I’m glad to hear it! Whatever you decide to get done, make sure to put it up for us!

I’m with tatbot, I love the level of detail my artist put into mine, but a higher level of detail would require a larger amount of space, and if you’re just doing your forearm…
I’d suggest finding a new place for it, or maybe just a small piece of the picture, something that really pops to you.
And good luck.
